Club News

The very entertaining Joe Smith and the Spicy Pickles will be featured at the Sunday, January 17th Denver Jazz Club Session, from 1:30 to 5pm, at Westminster Elks Lodge. This Denver based vintage jazz band is dedicated to revitalizing swing music and dance. They play big band swing from the late 30’s and early 40’s. Trumpet player and vocalist Joe Smith started the band in January of 2013 to give dancers live music to swing out to. Come see what the younger generation of swing dancers have been hip to for the last three years!

The UC Denver Claim Jumpers perform starting at 1:30pm, followed by sets played by the Spicy Pickles. The DJC Youth All-Stars perform an abbreviated set around 4pm.

Be sure to attend the Sunday, December 20th Denver Jazz Club Session at the Westminster Elks Lodge from 1:30 until 5:00pm! The Hot Tomatoes Dance Orchestra will be the main performance group. It’s a nine piece big band that specializes in swing, dance music, and big band jazz, at home with music for dancers and listeners, playing everything from R & B to Sinatra. They are fantastic, so don’t miss it! The UCD Claim Jumpers perform at 1:30pm, and there will also be a performance by our very own Denver Jazz Club Youth All-Stars at approximately 4:00pm.
